As demand grows for sustainable agriculture and energy-efficient systems, Atomizing Systems, Inc. delivers a practical solution for greenhouse operations with Cold Fog® high-pressure fog technology. Designed for precision and efficiency, Cold Fog is a humidification system that allows greenhouse and mushroom growers to regulate humidity with exceptional accuracy. It does this without excess moisture buildup that can damage plants or compromise growing environments.
"Cold Fog technology creates an ideal balance of humidity, supporting healthy plant growth while avoiding wet surfaces, pooling water, or oversaturation. The result is a cleaner, more stable environment that protects crops and improves consistency across growing cycles," the company explains.
Tailored systems for every greenhouse need
With more than 50 years in business, Atomizing Systems, Inc. understands that no two greenhouse operations are alike. Cold Fog systems are custom-designed to meet the specific requirements of each application. Whether growing vegetables, flowers, herbs, cannabis, or mushrooms, each system is engineered to deliver precise humidity and environmental control for optimal results.
"Our proprietary Ruby-Orifice nozzles, backed by a 20-year warranty, produce ultra-fine fog particles ranging from 1 to 15 microns. This allows humidity to be added without creating mist or excess moisture that can harm crops, growing beds, or floors. The fine atomization ensures humidification without wetting, helping reduce the risk of mold or fungal issues while maintaining a consistent growing environment."
Precision humidification and cooling
Maintaining the correct humidity level is critical for plant propagation. "Proper humidity supports transpiration, allowing plants to absorb water and nutrients efficiently. Cold Fog technology delivers humidity control within plus or minus 1 percent, giving crops exactly what they need without dehydration or oversaturation. This level of precision is especially important for delicate plants and high-value crops, including cannabis.
In addition to humidification, Cold Fog systems provide effective ambient cooling. As global temperatures rise and heatwaves become more common, this capability helps reduce heat stress on plants and creates a more comfortable working environment for greenhouse staff."
Energy efficiency and sustainability
Sustainability is a growing priority in modern agriculture, and Atomizing Systems, Inc. is committed to reducing energy use and environmental impact. "Unlike traditional humidifiers or cooling systems, Cold Fog technology operates without compressed air and achieves higher humidity levels using significantly less energy.
Cold Fog systems use minimal power, eliminate the need for carbon-based fuels, and feature soft-start operation for improved efficiency. Compared to conventional cooling and humidification methods, these systems can reduce energy consumption by up to 50 percent. This translates to lower operating costs and helps growers meet long-term sustainability goals."
Low maintenance, quiet operation, and flexibility
Cold Fog systems are designed for low operating and maintenance costs. "Quiet operation with no vibration makes them well suited for noise-sensitive environments. With fewer moving parts and no compressed air, wear and tear is reduced, resulting in lower maintenance demands over time.
System flexibility is another key advantage. A programmable PLC touchscreen allows precise zone control, enabling different areas or rooms within a greenhouse to be independently humidified. Multiple zones can be managed from a single fog pump skid, and timed programming allows growers to match system operation to specific crop needs throughout the day."

Chemical fogging for crop protection
Beyond humidification and cooling, Cold Fog systems can also be used for chemical fogging with water-based agents. "This is particularly valuable for crop disinfection between harvests, especially in the cannabis industry. The system distributes disinfectants evenly and safely, helping maintain a clean growing environment without requiring additional equipment.
This added capability supports healthier crops and more consistent production cycles while simplifying greenhouse operations."
A sustainable future for agriculture
"Cold Fog technology offers a comprehensive solution for modern greenhouse and mushroom operations. With precision humidification, cooling, and chemical fogging capabilities, these systems deliver efficient, uniform, and sustainable performance.
Built with UL-approved components and supported by a long record of successful installations, Atomizing Systems provides high-performance systems tailored to each grower's needs. For operations looking to improve humidity control, reduce energy costs, and support long-term sustainability, Cold Fog technology is a smart and reliable choice," the company shares.
